I haven’t got second source on this but one source said that he heard they are not wearing black oN Sunday for Piazza.
So that’s a lot of telephone but it got me thinking about it and I already sat on this for a few days.
In 2012 the black was an official alt. it is not in 2013.
If they wear black it would be as a throwback, and clearly we have seen the Mets wear throwbacks such as the swoosh jersey earlier this year.
However, I think any throwback games with the Mets in recent years have been on the road.
So maybe perhaps they aren’t wearing black after all? Or maybe they are?
They did wear black last year on the Edgardo Alfonzo bobblehead day. I hope they don’t wear black, but with this team you can never tell.
But as Shannon said, last year the black uni’s were still in the official rotation as alts
Could you let us know if you hear something? I’ll wear black to honor the Piazza years, but only if the Mets do, as well.
The black uniforms are actually still listed as current alternate uniforms (even tho they havent worn them this year). It was reported online a few months ago about all the Met uniforms. I dont get the hate for the black. The black uniforms were great! They wore them for about 14 years and created a lot of great memories in them. They looked really cool too!
